The Coolest Party in Town

The Brain Freeze Ice Cream Festival originated in Albuquerque, NM in 2018 as a fundraiser for the Rio Grande Down Syndrome Network.
7,000 ice-cream lovers attended!

In addition to satisfying ice-cream lovers of all ages with unlimited ice-cream, the mission of the Brain Freeze Ice Cream Festival is to support organizations that provide aid and assistance to the community of families and individuals whose lives have been impacted by a disability, a special need, or a mental illness.

The festival serves as a fundraiser for local organizations who support individuals with Down syndrome, in addition to any organization, club, or team willing to come and scoop ice-cream at the festival.

The 2018 Albuquerque event, in addition raising money for the Rio Grande Down Syndrome Network,  donated over $7,000 to 11 local charities, organizations, and kids sports clubs whose representatives volunteered their time to scoop ice-cream at the event.

We also provide free event space to any organization that provides support services to differently-abled individuals to help promote the organization’s services.

While great music fills the air, scoop stations come to life serving up 21 flavors of delicious, creamy, Blue Bell premium ice-cream.

The event is full of free activities for ice-cream lovers of all ages and we invite community businesses to take part and engage festival attendees in fun, creative ways.

The Brain Freeze Ice Cream Festival is an affordable, fun experience for ice-cream lovers of all ages. We hope to see you there.
